Published in conjunction with a 1973 University of California, Irvine exhibition, this flip-book style artist's book contains fifteen images of photographs, by Dan Graham, of John Baldessari, in full body profile, in the process of throwing a ball. This action is set off by horizontal lines, marking, like sheet music, the movement, and thus creating three melodies and fifteen chords.
